It was mentioned in another thread, but i felt it was worth mentioning on its own with more details.

Aparently tonight, we'll get the long awaited update for gears of war, featuring a new gametype with RESPAWNS!!!.

heres the info/link

Major Nelson just posted an update on the much anticipated Gears of War ... update. True, the auto update was initially slated to be released today and then was later denied, but we just got word that it is now back on for a release later tonight! Major isn't certain of the exact time that the update will be pushed through, but he did post a list of all the new enhancements and features that will be included;

* New Annex gametype.
* Better VGA cable support.
* Assassination gametype leader no longer unlocks weapons, but has to be executed to die.
* Boomshot's splash damage increased.
* Hammer of Dawn will be more forgiving with moving targets.
* Road Run has been tweaked to lesson accidental wall sticking.
* Kill message ticker will be available when down and while spectating.
* Fixed numerous multiplayer exploits (praise the lord!).

Ok , so they updated it and royally fucked up the mansion you can now run all over the sofa's , the running does'nt seem any better at all (you still get stuck to everything) and i might go as far as to say its worse !

But the new game type is pretty sweet.

Yeah, I can confirm that in "Fixing" the A button, theyve made it that you actually stick to more shit when running, if thats possible.

But yeah, that new gametype is completely badass, its what gears of war should be, fast, furious, and bloody.
